Justin PeachHOST
Exactly.
Justin PeachHOST
There's a, there's a great folly in Adebayo there, and that's what Adebayo did really well with Carlton Morris is when Luton went up, uh, uh, with Carlton Morris and Adebayo as a front two, Adebayo, I think he scored a handful of goals compared to that of Morris, who scored 20, um, the, the season they were promoted, and that's because Adebayo did a lot of the build-up stuff, and that actually might get more out of those.
Justin PeachHOST
So it might be a case of Adebayo comes in and starts more games than both Ballard and, and, and Talai because actually he, he'll get more.
Justin PeachHOST
But it depends on shape, doesn't it? It depends on shape-
Brian DickHOST
I, I mean, I, I gu- I guess unless Chris Davies is, is playing it g- a bit coy with, uh, with Patrick Roberts maybe.
Brian DickHOST
I know John Eustace pretty much ruled Carlton Morris out of the, uh, the Blues game last week- before last weekend, and then, like Lazarus, he's there on the pitch at the start.
Alex DickenHOST
Mm.
Brian DickHOST
Um, but yeah, Roberts again, it doesn't seem to be progressing as quickly as Davies would like, uh, in terms of his fitness, and obviously you've then got the, you know, the three-week international break coming up.
JackGUEST
You have, on the flip side to that... got players kind of playing on through injury when they pick them up later in games.
JackGUEST
Carlton Morris, John Eustace said after the Cardiff game about him struggling to last 90 minutes, that's something we'll need to look at.
JackGUEST
Then he was out three weeks.
JackGUEST
Zetterstrom picks up that injury that he's out with today, it looks like, right at the end of normal time.
12 MINS LATER
NigelGUEST
And fans have said, yeah, we can see now why he's been signed.
NigelGUEST
The one limitation, I think, as you mentioned there, is that last year, when Derby were most effective, we had full-backs that pushed forward and maybe weren't the strongest defensively, but really offered something going forward.
NigelGUEST
Joe Ward on the right particularly was getting balls in for Carlton Morris, and that worked really well.
NigelGUEST
As I say, Merkin down the left-hand side.
NigelPANELIST
So if the ball's going to come in the box in terms of crosses, I mean, I've just looked at the stats again and I'm amazed, but the stats suggest that we had 50 crosses in that game last Wednesday night.
NigelPANELIST
What's the point in 50 crosses when our front man is Sam Smudjic, who has an excellent scoring record, but he's not renowned for hammering headers home a la Shearer, Chris Martin, Carlton Morris, etc.
NigelPANELIST
So, again, it just feels a little bit like we go one step forward in the selection and then two steps back with the pairings and the tactics to fit them into.
NigelPANELIST
It was a strange one.
JackHOST
Ah! and it's rinse and repeat.
JackHOST
So, John Eustace mentioned this in his programme notes on Saturday, so of course, predictably, I put that to him.
JackHOST
Also, Carlton Morris was back after we heard a couple of weeks.
JackHOST
No, it was a couple of days.
Vik Singh DosanjhHOST
So, yeah, when you looked at Maestro on the left and then you had, obviously, Fusini on the right.
Vik Singh DosanjhHOST
Carlton Morris coming back was a big, big plus.
Vik Singh DosanjhHOST
So, you think to yourself, right, we're going to go for this game here.
Vik Singh DosanjhHOST
Hopefully, we're going to try and get three points.
11 MINS LATER
Adam TitleyHOST
I think we'll be saying that about everything, to be honest.
Adam TitleyHOST
But...
Adam TitleyHOST
So, probably joining on to that, I think it was a big benefit having Morris as well to play off as well at times.
Adam TitleyHOST
I thought Morris being back in that starting XI is absolutely key for us, especially if you want to score goals and his hold-up play and how he brings other players into play.
Benjamin BloomHOST
They were literally playing against 10 men against West Brom for the longest time and couldn't score.
Benjamin BloomHOST
And he's rushed Carlton Morris back and Aguimang's still way off injured.
Benjamin BloomHOST
And normally with Eustis, I would say just...
Benjamin BloomHOST
Trust the process.
Simon BrewHOST
And a lot of the build-up is, did you know Derby have had injuries? By the way, there's some injuries at Derby.
Simon BrewHOST
Are they the team with the injured players? But with the exception of Carlton Morris was back, we were told he's a big, important player to return to Derby.
Simon BrewHOST
And I believe that.
Simon BrewHOST
I have no issue with that.
Shaun BarkerGUEST
And it was good play.
Shaun BarkerGUEST
Carlton Morris understood where the ball was and played it out to Smolich.
Shaun BarkerGUEST
Smolich delayed the pass.
Shaun BarkerGUEST
Good run from Bobby Clarke, who gets into the box.
6 MINS LATER
Shaun BarkerGUEST
They had bodies and men behind the ball, which makes it that little bit more difficult.
Shaun BarkerGUEST
Smodic couldn't have done any more with a couple of strikes.
Shaun BarkerGUEST
Carlton Morris couldn't have done any more with a couple of strikes.
Shaun BarkerGUEST
But it was that congested and that tight, it gave them opportunity.
Brian DickHOST
They went more direct with Luz, Bjorken, Solvason, um, starting as well.
Brian DickHOST
Uh, they're, they're short of Carlton Morris, uh, obviously Aguemang who-
Alex DickenHOST
Mm
Brian DickHOST
... has terrorized, uh, Cla- Krzysztof Klaar at times in, in their, uh, in their head-to-heads in the championship.
NickGUEST
John Eustace wants to play a 4-2-3-1 with three sort of fairly interchangeable players behind a central striker, that being...
NickGUEST
in his ideal world, Carlton Morris.
NickGUEST
Last year, we didn't play traditionally with out-and-out wingers.
NickGUEST
We had Adjeman starting off the left, and when he got injured, Rhian Brewster took that spot.
NickGUEST
He's another one that's injured currently, concussion protocols.
NickGUEST
And we had Ben Brereton-Diaz off the right, so we were quite narrow.
NickGUEST
But those narrow, wide forwards would come and join him with Carlton Morris, be the men that ran off him.
NickGUEST
He's a really good hold-up man and one of the best aerial duelists that I've seen wear the Derby No. 9.
